3.4 Poor
Pros:location
Cons:I am not the up tight, stuck up type. You can take my word for it. This place is a cheap motel dump that they attempted to remodel on a cheap budget. they basically put lipstick on pig. and that was the superior room recently remodeled room. Laundry machines located on the 3rd floor with raccoons in trash bins, in the year 2019 takes quarters to operate. If your in need to do laundry after 5pm and dont have 8 quarters to wash and dry, your put if luck because the front desk won't have any. need detergent? buy a small box from the front desk for $4 per load. erroneous charges on my credit card. they charge for evvvvverything that other places would give by Just asking such as an early check in, water etc. terrible
W
4.5 Mediocre
Pros:Location is the only good thing I found. But that is because it was only about three blocks from where I was to conduct my business.
Cons:This is a party hotel. The lobby, pool, bar, and hallways were full of loud drinking partying young people. The noise level was loud even inside the rooms well past midnight on weekdays. Room service was unable to deliver because their staff were all serving at the parties.
C
9.1 Wonderful
Pros:Balconies were amazing and pool/bar area was nice. Enjoyed having a shuttle to get around nearby and plenty of parking.
Cons:Hallways were dark and dated, but rooms were nice and renovated. Not much light in rooms and not enough outlets. No water overnight due to city repairs, then no hot water all morning when water came back on.
A
8.0 Very good
Pros:Nicely remodeled guest room & lobby.
Cons:No free morning coffee in lobby. Restaurant needs updating, has limited menu, clam chowder in as mostly potatoes, and waiting 55 minutes for our food to be served, even though it was quiet.
A
7.1 Good
Pros:Great location. So close to the airport
Cons:It was under construction, but I'm sure it will be amazing . The service was crazy slow at the on site restaurant
A
4.0 Mediocre
Pros:The view was great... The shuttle drivers were great.
Cons:Torn up hotel undergoing much needed renovations. We had to pay $25 to check in early to predetermined room that was ready. They wanted to charge me to use microwave...The restaurant gave us a brochure that said happy hour till 7:00 pm... We came down at 6:25 pm and dreadlocked bartender was about to take our order then excused himself to take another order and in a few minutes he came back and said happy hour just ended at 6:30 pm while my phone clock ticked to 6:30 pm. Our bathtub leaked and was full of cold water so we could shower but they never fixed bathtub so we had to travel without washing..They zap credit card $100! for incidental 's...Nice view disappointing service. Blood thirsty to squeeze every penny from guests.
A
6.0 Okay
Pros:Location only
Cons:We’ve stayed here multiple times.. but the management here need serious work.. Our room wasn’t clean at check in.. Thy booked us on the wrong side of the hotel after we paid for Bayview.. Bees in our drinks...glass in our 3 drink.. Just a really bad experience
A
4.5 Mediocre
Cons:Keep looking. Not worth the $$$. Water pressure really bad in toilet. Supposedly in a renovated room... beds were really worn... half outlets didn't work. Cute decor... but renovation is not good quality.
M
7.4 Good
Pros:The location is nice and my check in was quick. It's right at the end of the Courtney Campbell Causeway so it is convenient to Tampa and Clearwater.
Cons:My room showed age and one of the two beds desperately needed to be replaced. It had no support left in it at all. Thankfully the other was comfortable and we were sharing a bed anyways. The tub had places where the glaze was peeled off. And when I woke up in the morning I noticed that the a/c unit had some wires popping out, complete with the connectors exposed. As a former housekeeping manager, the tub alone would have been a reason that I wouldn't have allowed this room to be used for the night, but the wires are a safety hazard and if I were traveling with small children I would have been worried about them playing with it. The hotel is going under a refurbishment right now so I wouldn't completely rule out a future visit, but I would wait until all the work is done.
